The result of the chi-square test proves that there is certainly no
relationship existing between the “years of experience” and
satisfaction levels over the “on-the-job” training.
It is inferred that around two-fifth of the sample population stand
neutral over the “on-the-job” training satisfaction levels.
It is certainly found that the respondents of Jemi Cluster were not
thoroughly satisfied over the “off-the-job” training satisfaction levels.
The chi-square results proves that null relationship exists between the
“off-the –job” training satisfaction levels and the “years of experience”
of the respondents.
The results of rank correlation prove out that a mere significant
relationship exists between the conditions to be improved during the
training sessions and the skills of the trainer.
It should be noticed that a significant relationship profoundly exists
between the opinion and reasons of performance appraisal.
It is certainly observed that around 46% of the sample population is
paid under ten thousand rupees as their monthly income.
The training session’s duration should be increased and more skilled
trainers should be arranged and the number of training programs also
should be increased.
The management can adopt new method of appraisal than the present
tool performance evaluation sheet. They can adopt 360 degree
appraisal.
Employee should be considered for the increment in salary, if their
performance exceeds beyond predetermined standards.
Human Resource Development is an important part of every
organization.
Through HRD, organization can help employees in adjusting and
accommodating themselves to the organization’s practice and market
competitive environment.
The present study has been undertaken with the objective of analyzing
the perception of employees towards the HRD practices namely
performance appraisal and training and development.
After the long time study and survey about the two practices, it can be
said that the practices need lot more improvement, revision and
extension to all the employees of the company at each level.
An effective HRD practice and its proper implementation is very much
essential for regular periodical feedback and evaluation of he
employees so that it can stand as an effective and much well planned
activity.
